Literacy is deeply connected with the rights of individuals and communities: it is about their right to have a voice in society; to continue and extend their education; to read and to be read. We know from our work in this area that improving these skills can bring massive benefits to individuals, families and communities but we need your support. Here are some of the ways you can help.
